Well im not sure about your perspective… we didnt win against the VC in nam. Yea we killed many but they didnt stop fighting. We’ve lost more ppl to fentanyl in one year than all the US casualties for all 14 years of vietnam. Look at afghanistan, 20 years fighting goat farmers in curtains and sandals that wipe their ass with their left hand without toilet paper in it and we still didnt win shit. Granted most americans dont have as much fight as a chihuahua in them but I cant say that taking out those of us who still have active testosterone and working bodies will be as easy as droning us to hell. Problem is over half of us are poisoned fools and walking meat sacks occupied by the spirit of consumerism. Our biggest challenge is ending the divide so we can focus our efforts.

The weight class does matter in boxing generally speaking, however it is possible to have someone throwing a punch of an inferior weight class.....speed would determine the power. But weight it is definetely a factor for the person of the lower weight class RECEIVING the punch.

Also the objective of boxing is to avoid punches of the oponent just like other martial arts....that alone it is not easy task. My son was a boxer since age 12 up until 25 (he was pro for few years).

The weight class is placed for protection, safety(??)....boxing is a very dangerous sport.
